AN IMPORTANT CASE.
The Post Percheron Horse Com
pany VS.. Wilkinson & Eubank.
Sheep Craze on Railroad Sections
Owned BY Plaintiffs.
An Injunction Served and So, 800
Damages Sought.

The famous Post ercberon Horse COM
pany by its attorney, Hon. j.. G. Baird,
has instituted a suit for damages against
and served an injunction upon Wilkinson
& Eubank, well known sheep growers.
The preliminary papers filed in the office
of Clerk of Court Murrin yesterday allege
that the defendants are guilty of trespass.
and pray that the offenders be restrained
from ranging the wool producing ami
mails upon land to which the corporation
holds title.
The result of the suit is of the greatest
Importance to persons engaged in the live
stock business. The litigation is not, as
would appear from a cursory examination,
the outgrowth of encroachments of the
sheep owners upon public land recognized
as the range of the Post Percheron Horse
company. The status of the case, as
stated by a disinterested party, is as fol-
lows:
The sheep in question, several large
droves, have been ranged near the Horse
creek ranch of the horse concern for some
time. The latter own many sections of
railroad land in that locality, but hold
title to very little government realty, and
from this circumstance proceeds the
cause for litigation. There is no dispute
as to range rights. The plaintiff order
the intruders to vacate the railroad sec
tons, assuring the offenders that they are
~trespassing. Wilkinson & Eubank hold,
and will doubtlessly attempt to demon
strate in court, that so long as the land is
not enclosed, trespass is impossible. With
out any intention to. prejudice the case of
the defendants, it is stated that they are
Nebraska men who have driven their
stock over the Wyoming line in search of
better feed.
Sheriff Sharpless served an injunction
upon the alleged trespassers last evening.
Should the defendants move to dissolve
the injunction a hearing will take place at
an early day; otherwise some time will
elapse before the case is tried.
The law points involved in the demand
for damages have lately been introduced
in similar litigations in Kansas, lows,
Nebraska and Colorado. The institution
of this suit recalls a little incident which
occurred on Lone Tree creek, about nine
miles from Cheyenne, several years ago.
Jas. Droney, whom all old timers recol-
lect, owned a ranch in the valley and had
a small band of horses grazing on the ad-
jacent hills. In an unguarded moment
one of Governor Warren's shepherds led
his flock upon Droney's range. The
horse raiser wa indignant. He did not
consider it compatible with his position
as owner of a ranch to request the sheep
herder.to vacate. Turning loose his pack
of hounds, he was terribly enraged to see
the shepherd calmly stone them away.
Droney desperately grasped a needle gun
and began firing at the trespasser. The
sheep stampeded and the panic-stricken
herder fled.

Nast's Ledgerdemain.

A gentleman who attended the Mast
entertainment in Denver pronounces it
n of the most amusing and instructive
affairs conceivable. ASIDE from his rapid
ity, naturalness and artistic ability, Nast's
humOr is as delicate as laughable, and
spontaneous as effective. His series of
labeled sketches, portraits of public men
and delineations of current topics were well
received. This wizard of the pencil and
brush demonstrates hat while there are
tricks in trades there are decisions in his
arr. One effort e~levates the curiosity of
the audience to fever heat. In the first
stage the picture apparently reveals a
piano pursuing a COW, with a cloud burst
in the background. Then it assumes the
shapes of houses and trees razed and
felled by IN Iowa cyclone. The sequel ID
%astonishing. Inverting the enigma, a
most beautiful and realistic view of Mag
ara falls is greeted with honest applause.

From Jail to Hospital.

Williams, the young man brought from
Lusk and placed in the county Jail several
months ago, charged with the larceny of
a horse, was yesterday removed to the
hospital. The unfortunate man is suffer-
ing from consumption and can hardly re-
cover. Prior to becoming involved in the
trouble which resulted in his incarcera-
ton, Williams bore an excellent reputa-
ton. While on a spree at Lusk he was
induced to pawn a horse to some gamblers
whom he owed. Many asserted at the
time that Williams was not a criminal
but the victim of the wiles of unprincipled
men.
